Good enough for me. Allowed. (If only to see what you al make of 87)🙄

!4^sqrt(4) + 4 + sqrt(4) = 87

hmm...I think perhaps using !n is cheaper than inverse trig operations because for example I can find 1 via : !(!(sqrt(!4)))...I'm betting with a bit of creativity one could find many integers with just one 4 and a combination of sqrt(n), n!, and !n 😵

4 * 4! - 4 - sqrt(4) = 90

But the thing is to use exactly four 4's. I think it's good enough. But if others think so, we can continue without it.

true...but finding a three now costs only one 4 where as before it would cost you 3 of em 🙂

There's another thread-killer I came across - PI/PI=1 - makes it all pretty easy!

I figured that you can use also 4'. Derivative from any constant number is 0 so figure it out with less than four 4's and add a number of 4' you need.

For example 4/.4 + 4' + 4' = 10

you can also zero from !(!(!(sqrt(!4))))
